Early "Clackamas Kimber" with a few minor internal modifications and different stocks.

An old Colt Series 70's with blk parkerized slide/frame with internals hardchromed by Armaloy, decades ago. (The blk parkerizing has been refinished a few years ago. Lou Williamson did the S&W revolver sight installation.)

Springfield Mil Spec with different grips and internals.

STI Trojan 38 Super

Early Dan Wesson Patriot. The front sight has been changed as have the grips.

Man, there are some seriously nice 1911s in this thread. I have yet to even chnage the grips on my first (but not my last). I like the STI Trojan longslide, I think that will be my next one.
Here's my stock PT1911:

I did the math - if I wanted - instead of buying a PS90, I could sell my HK USPc and have enough to by a Nighthawk Talon w/ bull barrel if I wanted (about $2500). But, I don't know. I used to want one very badly. But, I generally shoot my P99 better or as well as I do a 1911. Not sure if its worth it... Hmmmmm....

it ain't a safe queen, that's for sure ...

my old Springfield workhorse ... I know it ain't pretty with wear marks & dings & scratches but it's one of my all time favorite sidearms ... it's been through hell & back and it shows and it still empties the brass pretty darn good. I couldn't even guess how many rounds now.

looks good, rusty. guns are tools meant to be used. props to your using it to it's intended purpose.

Thanks Dread ... did manage to add new Houge grips, a front strap & 8 rd. mags to give it some new life. And I agree with 100% you guys own some nice hardware ... with the New Taurus, Colts, STI & Colts very nice. My 1911 wants are much bigger than my wallet ... too many hobbies I suppose ...
